852HB W2D2: Deadlift
Deadlift: 335x5, 355x5, 375x6 (6PR) Video of 375x6 at Geoffrey Bischoff on Instagram: “375*6. This is a 6PR, but I should be able to pull 8+ at this weight. Feeling weak for a few days now. Gonna press thru. SDG #texasmethod…”
I cut the set at 6. Felt like crap. Sure, it's a 6PR, but I should be able to handle this weight for at least 8 reps without issue, 10 or 12 reps if I go all-out. At this point I'm not sure how much of my issue is psych and how much physio. But the board said do 375 for at least 5, and I did it, so I met the board target. Gonna call it a win.
Squat: 225x5
Worked up to a set of 5 on the squat. Also felt sluggish despite the small load, but I stayed in my hips and tried to really do good squats. With 3 working sets of deadlift, and this working set of squat, I'm at 4 total for the week.
C2 style rower: 4x500, 2min rest. All splits sup-2m.
Repeated yesterday's conditioning intervals. Easier this time; conditioning effect is already happening. Next, maybe add another interval or two, or stay at 4 intervals but cut rest time. Or just stay at 4x500/2minrest/2min split all week, and punch up next week.
Got it in, didn't quit, despite the feelz. SDG
